Cat Wu, formerly a product lead on Claude Code, joins OpenAI to lead product management for Core Products

Cat Wu announced on X that they are joining OpenAI to lead product management for Core Products. They said they will work with Tibo (@thsottiaux), the PM team and others across OpenAI, and that the aim is to "build agents that have your back and your team's, and keep you in control." They did not say which products Core Products covers.

Wu left Anthropic, where they had worked on Claude Code, on October 30. Tibo, who is known for OpenAI's Codex, and OpenAI's Greg Brockman and Romain Huet replied to welcome Wu.
